I assume here you are using the DBM-style abstraction layer functions,
not the old DBM functions which are deprecated (yet available for your
version of PHP).

In order to use DB4, you should compile PHP with the option --with-
db4. For DBM, the option is --with-dbm. You must already be compiling
it with --enable-dba anyway, which is required.

Note that there are known problems when compiling with both DB4 and
either DB2 or DB3.
